Water, water, everywhere...

April 25, 2013
We all know that water is a great thing for us, we're made up of 90% of the stuff, so how could it not be good for you?  It's amazing how many of us, don't drink the recommended 8 pints of water in a day.  It's actually not a lot, but man oh man will it help you to feel better, and sing better.

This week, we've seen a few singing lessons where singers have been extremely dehydrated.  Remember that Tea and Coffee are diuretics, they make you pee a lot, but that's because it's sucking all the mo...

In the Name of Love

April 4, 2013
On this day in 1968, Martin Luther King was fatally shot, standing on his balcony in Memphis, Tennessee.  Not only was he an influence on the Civil Rights movement (some may say he spearheaded it), but he influenced musicians...

We've decided to go with U2's "Pride".  Listen out for the line;

"Early morning, April 4, Shot rings out in the Memphis sky"

Some news from our Vocal Students...

December 27, 2012
As I'm sure many of you are aware, Rear View Singers are absolutely fantastic!

There have been a few bits and bobs of news recently, so I just thought I'd spread the word.

Our youngest singer Saskia (11), has not only been entertaining all over Edinburgh and West Lothian over the festive period, but her original song (lyrics by her mum Leeann), was selected to be in an album for the victims and families of Sandy Hook.  Saskia's song "You're Not Really Gone", makes her the only child and the onl...

Who do you think has the best singing method?

April 17, 2012
Do you remember Lene Nystrom, the singer from poptastic eurodance band, "Aqua"?  We couldn't call them a one hit wonder by any means, they had a number of hits in the early noughties, and they definitely tapped into the pop music market.  However, the hit "Barbie Girl", demonstrates an undesirable singing technique.
